Version

Internet 1.1 Introduction (cont'd)

WHAT IS Internet's GROWTH PROFILE?

With a monthly growth rate of computers hosts averaging 10-15 percent, the Internet is by far the most rapidly growing electronic network in the world. Traffic growth on major backbones has been exceeding 25 percent per month. The growth is without precedent in the field of communications and is invoking major engineering efforts to accommodate the anticipated size, complexity, and traffic.

WHAT DOES Internet PROVIDE?

The primary applications include electronic mail, file transfer, and remote log-in. Special electronic mail architectures are also used to support news distribution applications. Major backbones presently support transfer rates from Tl (1.5 Mbit/s) to DS-3 (45 Mbit/s).

HOW EXTENSIVE IS Internet USE?

The magnitude of Internet mail and file transfers constitute by several orders, the most extensive use of these applications in the world. Domestic traffic through one major U.S. Internet backbone alone exceeded one terabyte (10 at power 12) in September 1991. "Super-exponential" traffic growth patterns are being experienced in every country and region.

1.1.2 WHO USES Internet? ISN'T IT JUST AN "ACADEMIC" NETWORK?

More than 5 million people worldwide in more than 100 countries who have a need to access and use information or to collaborate rapidly with colleagues use Internet - in whole or in part. Major user groups include: researchers and educators in every professional discipline, government officials and agencies, commercial enterprises. It has spawned entirely new disciplines like collaborative theory.

Internet started as an academic network, which was supported and been evolved by most of the world's best universities and institutes. It subsequently attracted commercial service providers, and today, most major electronic research, manufacturing, and operating companies are now active Internet users. It is increasingly being marketed and used for many commercial purposes.

Internet User Guide Page: 2 Version 1.0 (10/15/93) WHO "RUNS" Internet?

No one! It exists by virtue of cooperation among all the diverse networks and users to follow certain protocols and practices, but otherwise maintain their autonomy.

The cooperation centers around an Internet Architecture Board (JAB) with an international composition, and which is the standards making body within the Internet Society. An Engineering Task Force (IETF) develops the standards, and a Research Task Force which fosters and maintains networking nd information science experiments involving internetworking, report to the Board. The IETF develops and adopts the most extensively used open internetworking standards in the world.

The Internet Society is now the world's internetworking international organization. It also hosts the annual International Networking Conference, publishes the Internet Society News magazine, and serves as a global mechanism for development, administration, and standards making for internetworking.

1.2 Why is the Internet important to AID ?

• AID personnel can electronically exchange mail messages and documents with contractors, vendors, universities, AID missions not directly connected to AIDNET, and other Government Agencies.

• Improved information access methods can supplement our OE and project- funded activites. ·

• Communications with disaster relief personnel can be more complete and complement the capabilities of our internal network

1.3 What does Internet Cost ?

AID IRM/TCO has acquired an annual subscription for an Agency membership to the Internet through a Washington area Internet service provider. This annual subscription covers our multiple links in Washington through gateway services and telco lines and will be used to service the Banyan AIDNET user community, domestically and overseas.

The subscription covers all E-Mail messaging, as well as interactive telnet and FfP from hosts that allow public access to their information. The subscription does not cover services provided by other commercial services that provide online access to information (such as Compuserve, Down Jones Retrieval, etc.).

1.4 What type of business can a user conduct ?

Access to the Internet through AID's facilities is for official and unclassified use only. It is the user's responsibility to follow this guideline.

Internet Chapter 3 INTERNET E-MAIL

3.1 Obtainine Address of External Internet Users

3.1.l Ask them --- most preferable

The most obvious, but sometimes the most forgotten.

If there is some individual in a particular external organization with whom the user wants to communicate, it is worth the price of the phone call for them to find out what their E-Mail address is. It saves them valuable time and puts them in electronic contact with them almost immediately.

If external organization has the capability to send through the Internet, then the user should provide them with their individual internet address and ask the external organization to initiate a message to the user. Upon receipt, the user will have acquired the address that they will use to send to mail to them.

3.1.2 Through E-Mail

As a network of network, finding a specific individual's address can be both time consuming and frustrating. There are many paths to take and many directories to search.

To minimize the amount of time spent looking for an individual's and/or organization's address, users can use E-Mail to initiate searches of directories. This is accomplished through "key-word" searches based upon the contents of the E-Mail that is sent to the service. The format of the content of the search can require many different formats (there is no one common format for this search).

Appendix C will contain in the near future listings of some of the mail directory host; this list is incomplete and will be updated occasionally; however, it will be always be incomplete due to the nature of network growth.

3.1.3 Through Telnet/Gopher access

This section will be completed when we have identified the procedures and common sources of directory information.

A more detailed explanation will also be included in the future ONLINE Section of this user guide.

Internet User Guide Page: 13 Version 1.0 (10/15/93) 3.2 How to send mail from AIDNET via Internet to external or&anizations

Many private and commercial networks have implemented some form of Internet gateway, enabling AID to send to these institutions and/or individuals through the Internet.

Addressing, however, can be problematic, depending on the implementation of the Internet gateway. Some are dedicated connections, while many more are dial­ up connections (which means that individuals attached to these gateways only receive and send mail periodically).

This section will described some of the commonalities of addressing and what to expect at least from some of the most popular networks.

3.2.1 Explanation of an Internet address

[optional route ]:user@host

optional route = corresponds to a path that mail should follow in order to reach its intended "host"

user = corresponds to the recipient of the message

host = corresponds to a machine of this user's mailbox or to a host which knows where this user's mailbox is

The user is usually easily identified.

The host can either be a "domain name" or a specific "address".

AIDNET's domain name is usaid.gov An example of a USER address at AIDNET would be [email protected]

3.2.1.1 Optional routes

Sometimes additional routing information is necessary in order to get the message to the intended recipient. This can be complicated, but is a necessary part of the internet. For example, America Online can be routed through Compuserve or directly on the internet ... sometimes this depends on where geographically the user is located.

Normally, a user does not have to worry ... the safest thing to do is have the user provide the external organization or individual with their individual address and have them initiate the first message. Usually the body of the address used for the reply will contain the required routing information.

X400 is another form of external communications capability available on AIDNET. Those organizations that have X400 capabilities sometimes have the ability to access an Internet gateway from their commercial carrier. If this is the case, then replying to them via Internet instead would be more economical; however, the addressing requirements to accomplish this feat, as demonstrated below, can be quite unfriendly.

Internet 3.3 How to send attachments

3.3.1 General Information

The procedure for sending attachments is as easy when sending to Internet users as it is when sending to another AIDNET user.

However, as mentioned in the previous section on addressing, the ability for the receiving end to send attachments to you and for them to receive your attachments is dependent on their specific network's implementation of their Internet gateway.

3.3.2 ASCII versus BINARY

To understand attachments, you first must understand the differences between ASCII files versus BINARY files.

In a nutshell, BINARY files contain the control and formatting codes required to make that file unique to a specific application. Lotus files, dBase files, .exe and .com files --- are all examples of BINARY files.

ASCII files are files that contain no control codes, formatting commands, or any code that makes the file unique to a specific machine and/ or application.

As a standard, ASCII files (e.g., WordPerfect files saved as DOS files rather than WordPerfect files) can be sent as attachments. If the recipient/sender's gateway supports file transfer, they will support ASCII file transfers.

This is important to consider when someone asks you to send them a "file". If they cannot receive binary files, they should let you know beforehand.

AIDNETs implementation supports users sending and receiving both ASCII and BINARY files through our Internet gateway.

3.3.3 Limitations

E-Mail within and to external organizations from AIDNET will not support more than 10 file attachments associated with a single message. This is generally not a problem, but can be problematic if not remembered.

While there are no current size limitations for file attachments, consideration should be given for other network users when sending or receiving "large" files. If the files can be compressed at each end prior to sending/receiving, this would assist in reducing the amount of time required for the network to handle this transaction.

3.5.1 A user can request confirmation that the E-Mail message to the internet address was delivered. The default on the Internet is no confirmation unless requested; ie, no news (e.g. error messages), good news.

The delivery confirmation is a confirmation that the "host" accepted the mail item and is processing it to the intended recipient.
